Well received another box today. As the wife says "you been getting a lot of packages lately." :) I am still waiting on vent tube. Got it half price on line. Also Sonny seen my post and sent me his number on how to. He was nice enough to volunteer to send me the wire for the 500 watt set up he did. Said he had one made up already. I've got the element. The adapters for vents and i'm in progress of building a simple bench. Using and existing heater vent pipe makes it easier. Think I may end up using PVC for smoke pipe. Shooting to get all down before the really bad weather hits. Want to smoke inside this winter.
sounds like your well on your way for a nice set up
Put mine in the garage a couple weeks ago. Did a couple smokes, just need to tidy up the set up. Good luck with the build.
